Join us for a spirited episode of the Chasing Daylight Podcast as we engage in a lively discussion with Mike from Beautiful Golf Courses. Ever wondered why golf course rankings can be as subjective as music tastes? We're breaking down the art and challenge of reviewing golf courses, addressing the criticism we've faced, and the nuances that influence our ratings. From the importance of practice facilities for traveling golfers to the peculiarities of course conditions affecting standings, we promise an honest look at what goes into our rankings and why some courses, like Conestoga, have unexpectedly climbed the list.

Explore the dynamics of golf pricing with us as we compare the costs of playing in Las Vegas and Wisconsin. Discover the impact of COVID-19 on golf demand and how it has led to fluctuating rates, much like Uber's surge pricing. With a candid assessment of local discounts and the short golfing season in Wisconsin, we dive into the factors that make courses like Paiute Golf Resort consistently stand out despite booking challenges. We'll also reveal our personal favorites, including Rio Secco and Conestoga, and share surprising anecdotes from our golfing adventures.

Finally, immerse yourself in the heartwarming world of the Beautiful Golf Charity Auction, supporting the Fore Hadley charity. Learn about the incredible community spirit that raises funds for families in need and the touching story behind the charity's mission. With over $600,000 raised to date, discover how you can be part of this meaningful cause while enjoying exclusive golf experiences. From a passionate defense of our rankings to celebrating the generosity of the golfing community, this episode is a rich tapestry of insights and stories for every golf enthusiast.
